Loose-in-the-Street Program

Yard Waste Collection is provided by the City of Sacramento Department of Utilities Solid Waste Services.  Residents with this service can place a single pile of yard waste, up to two cubic yards, in front of their homes for collection each week.

Loose-in-the-Street Service Guidelines

  • No more than two cubic yards of yard waste material (3’x3’x6’ pile) per collection.
  • Additional amounts of material may be picked up for an extra fee. Call in advance to get a quote at 916-808-5454.
  • Place pile six feet from any obstruction (cars, boats, basketball hoops, etc.), away from the gutter and out of the bike lane.
  • Keep unacceptable materials out of your yard waste pile.
  • Avoid pruning during leaf season  (October through December)
